Super Asteroids & Missile Command on Atari Lynx (1995)

Super Asteroids & Missile Command is a 1995 compilation game released for the Atari Lynx platform. This title combines two classic arcade-style games—Asteroids and Missile Command—into a single cartridge, offering players a blend of space shooting and defensive gameplay. As a compilation game, it brings together the main objectives of both original games, where players must destroy asteroids and defend cities from missile attacks.

The pace of the game varies between the two modes: Asteroids provides fast-paced, precision shooting in open space, while Missile Command focuses on strategic defense and timing to protect targets from incoming missiles. A unique mechanic in this compilation is the seamless integration of two distinct gameplay styles, allowing players to switch between aggressive offense and tactical defense.

What sets Super Asteroids & Missile Command apart is its unusual idea of merging two iconic arcade experiences onto the portable Atari Lynx, making it a distinctive title in the GBC fighting game and arcade compilation genre. This 1995 Atari Lynx game offers both nostalgic action and varied gameplay in one package.
